The Iowa Board of Regents approved the University of Iowa’s request to renovate the Iowa Memorial Union, or IMU, a longstanding structure and student hub built in 1925.

The renovated IMU will house upgraded and expanded food service options, meeting spaces, multipurpose rooms, and the existing UI Student Health.

The renovations will be conducted in multiple phases beginning in the fall of 2025. The completion date is set for the spring of 2027.
